Body composition is the proportion of fat and fat-free mass present in the body. It describes fat, bone, water, and muscle percentages in human bodies. Body Composition Analyzers (BCAs) are used to measure body composition. Healthy body composition refers to one that includes a lower proportion of body fat and a higher ratio of fat-free or lean mass. Since muscular tissue takes up a lesser space in the body than fat tissue, leanness is determined by body weight and body composition. Body Composition Analyzers (BCAs) assess body composition and evaluate the risk of individuals developing diseases like truncal and abdominal obesity.

MARKET DRIVERS

The growing consciousness among people toward health and fitness is propelling the global body composition analyzers market growth.

The market for body composition analyzers is further anticipated to be driven by the rising incidence of obesity, overweight, aging population globally, and growing funding from government and global healthcare institutions for preventive healthcare practices. According to World Health Organization (WHO), an estimated 1.9 billion people over 18 years were overweight. Furthermore, as mentioned by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), between 2017 and 2018, 42.4% of U.S. adults were obese, according to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. In addition, growing health and fitness consciousness, metabolic disorders, and heart disease are also likely to boost the market demand. Furthermore, the development of the body composition analyzers market is also fuelled by a rise in government programs for a healthier lifestyle, other healthcare organizations, and the World Health Organisation (WHO). Furthermore, the rising obese populace, the increasing utility of these analyzers in the sports and fitness industry, and the growing government initiatives to encourage fitness consciousness and physical activity are expected to drive market growth.

Body composition analyzers also aid in measuring various substances found in the body and provide precise values during the examination. In addition, some analyzers can detect accumulated changes in body structure over a given period. Due to this, the market for body composition analyzers is expected to expand in response to rising health club memberships and increased health consciousness among the public. During the forecast period, developing economies like India and China are expected to offer attractive growth opportunities to key market players.

MARKET RESTRAINTS

High costs associated with the equipment and the inaccuracy of various analyzers hamper the growth of the body composition analyzers market. Furthermore, accurate body composition analyzers determine a person's probability of contracting a particular condition, such as obesity. Furthermore, skinfold tests can be used in cohort trials with obesity-related diseases, another restraining factor to the market.
